LAKEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renal
Ventures Management LLC, a leading provider of dialysis services
for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, announces the
formation of RV Physician Partners LLC, a new division of vascular
access centers slated to open in 2013.

Access related complications are the leading cause of hospitalizations
for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients. This is especially true
with patients who have venous catheters for temporary access. RV
Physician Partners will work with Vascular Surgeons, Interventional
Nephrologists and Interventional Radiologists to minimize access
failures and hospitalizations by providing more accessible and more
affordable alternatives to existing options.

To lead the new company, Renal Ventures brought on Adrian Amedia, a
renal industry veteran with over 18 years of experience, to serve as
president of RV Physician Partners. Amedia recently departed Vascular
Access Centers (VAC), where he served as vice president of business
development and was responsible for opening new facilities, improving
physician reimbursement and recruiting interventional physicians to work
in VAC-owned, office-based surgery practices.

Prior to his time at VAC, Amedia worked at DaVita for six years as
director of business development and operations, where he was
responsible for developing 32 free-standing vascular access centers
throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Earlier in his career, Amedia
worked in an executive role at Health Informatics and in various
clinical and administrative roles at Renal Disease Management before the
company was sold to Renal Care Group.

Renal Ventures Management LLC is a leading provider of dialysis
services in the U.S. The company partners with hospitals and physicians
to provide patients suffering from chronic kidney failure with
knowledgeable, compassionate and quality-focused care in comfortable
clinic settings. For its hospital and nephrologist partners, Renal
Ventures Management provides management expertise and patient-focused
care operations that center on collaboration, quality and effectiveness.
Headquartered in Lakewood, Colo., the company operates 36 dialysis
partnerships and 25 inpatient service contracts in six states. For more
